Abstract:
This paper explores the learning experiences of overseas postgraduate students studying in the UK, with a focus on how creative learning and teaching approaches can be adapted for the students. A multi method approach was adopted to data collection, using a mini focus group and 18 individual reflective diaries. Qualitative content analysis was conducted to illustrate themes from the interview and individual reflective diaries. Fee incentives, affordable accommodation and a good social life motivated students to study at the Midlands University. This paper generates fresh insights into learning experience by overseas post graduate students in the UK.
